Iran-Israel conflict- In the fifth wave of Operation True Promise 4 in the Indian Ocean, an MSP ship carrying ammunition for American vessels was struck by four drones at the Jebel Ali anchorage, leaving it completely disabled following damage and explosions.

Iranian officials also claimed that an MST-class combat support ship transporting fuel for US vessels in the Indian Ocean was hit by Iranian Qadr-380 missiles, according to a post by Indian Embassy in Iran.

Iran has launched a new wave of strikes targeting Israel and United States bases. The attacks come in the aftermath of the killing of Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The statement further alleged that an American naval base in the Abdullah Mubarak area of Kuwait was targeted by four ballistic missiles and 12 drones, destroying infrastructure and causing a large number of US casualties and injuries. The IRGC Navy said that, together with the air force, it would continue operations and “keep the gates of hell open to enemy units.”

Following Khamenei’s death, Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) issued a strong warning against Israel and the United States. The force vowed what it described as the “most ferocious offensive operation in history".
